PLAYER’S PERSPECTIVE

We’re proud to be an official dealer for the distinctly amazing Aluminati Guitars! We had been getting inquiries about some of these builds, and found that these were super cool and high-end guitars that are a little different in the sea of guitars out there… and we’re all about that! Now that we finally have gotten our hands on these guitars, we couldn’t be happier – James and his team at Aluminati are absolutely killing it. This is a custom Orion in Black Lucite with a 3×3 tuner configuration at the headstock.

With an aluminum neck, you’ll never have to worry about readjusting your action. It’s set it and forget it. The entire guitar is impervious to the usual suspects, such as weather changes and the elements, that can wreak havoc on wood. The neck profile feels extremely comfortable and it’s lightning-fast to rip on. The action is freakishly low on the guitar, and again, you can leave it that way since you don’t have to worry about the neck shifting or moving around on you. The playability is off the charts – smooth and buttery with minimal effort required.

This build features Lollar Imperial humbucker pickups. The Imperials have become the industry standard as far as boutique “PAF”-style pickups go, and for good reason. Jason Lollar is one of the best pickup builders in the game and a favorite winder here at the shop. These pickups sound crisp, clear, and warm, with all the vocal-like presence in the mids that a good set of PAFs have. The clarity of this set in the aluminum body is nothing short of spectacular.

Aluminati says that the Lucite body produces an extended midrange response, and that’s definitely noticeable when you start to add some distortion to the tone. That midrange is what keeps your notes punchy and tight even as you saturate the tone. It’s incredible.

ITEM SPECIFICS

A further evolution of the Orion Series brings a whole new dimension to our flagship guitar model. Utilizing 3D-milled lucite for the body provides pronounced midrange and a beautiful faceted aesthetic that is constantly changing with its environment. Accompanied by either a Nebula or Aurora Hollowcore Aluminum guitar neck, these instruments have a truly interstellar appearance with high-performance capabilities!

At home from studio to stage, Aluminati instruments put all of the nuance and articulation of modern technology at the fingertips of any player while remaining as familiar and comfortable to play as the renowned guitars of old.
